To Our Readers.

In compliance with a long considered
desire the price of the Weekly FREE
PRESS is reduced to ONE DOLLAR YEAR.
1t is needless to state the causes leading
TO this reduction; everybody knows the
tendency of the times. The FREE PRESS
has by engagements and improvements
faithfully kept up with the times, and
has tried in all ways to give its readers
their moneys worth. Its subscription
list is evidence of the fact that its efforts
have been appreciated. But the time has
come when the FREE PRESS wishes to
reach larger constituency than it has
eyer reached before. To accomplish this
reduction to the popular Weekly price
seemed to be necessary. a reduction is
accordingly made-the largest and most
important ever made by a Vermont news
paper.
The quality of the FREE PRESS is such
that we firmly believe the new price will
bring great many new subscribers

With eight State tickets voted for in the
Empire State, the lessons of the election
figures are not all perfectly clear. Appar-
emily, however, the labor party, while fall
ing off greatly in New York city, owing,
doubtless, to the opposition Of the Catholic
church to HenryGeorge, drew heavily from
both the leading parties in the rural coun-
ties; and contrary to all expectation as
heavily from the republican party as from
the democratic. The prohi bition vote in.
creased, as it was expected to; and it is
not surprising that the democrats, aided
by the prohibitionists, the liquor dealers
the labor party and the entire purchase
able eleme nts of all parties, should have
carried the day. The result shows that if
the republicans are to carry New York in
the next national election, thoroughly
uneXceptionable candidate must be NOM
mated ; and it seems to he considered by
shrewd judges of both parties, that it
renders the denomination of Mr.. Blaine
exceedingly unlikely.

The New Hampshire Legislature glad
dened the taxpayers of the state by finally
adJourning on Saturday. 1t maintained
its character to the end. Oae of the last
acts of the House was to resolve that the
Hazen bill had become law, the COVER
nor's negative to the contrary, although
the measure was not voted upon after the
executive veto. The majority of the House
which passed this resolution stand upon
the ground that the governors veto is
void, because he did not state his objec-
tions to the details of the bill, so that the
matter could he legally reconsidered by
the popular branch. TO disinterested
outsider Gov Sawyer assigned a sufficient
objection to the bill when he stated that it
was the result of bribery; and the reports
on the subject from the judiciary com
mittee show that the governor knew what
he was talking about.

Gen. Benet, chief of ordnance of the
United States army, says in his annual re
port, which is just published: "EXperi-
ments with the Stevens dynamite shell
have shown sufficient promise to justify a
more extended trial. and the firings will
he continued at an early day" This is the
shell invented by our townsman, Mr. b.
ID. Stevens, some experiments with which,
conducted at the State arsenal at Mont
pelier, were recently reported in our
columns. Some other dynamite inven-
tons for war purposes are taking good
deal more Of the public attention, but we
believe that the Stevens shell is taking
more Of the favorable attention of the
ordnance department than anything else
except the Zelinski air-gun, and that the
experiments yet to come will increase their
opinion Of its value.
